To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, JAMES SAMUEL COOKE and JOHN WILLIAM BROOK, both subjects of Her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, residing at Liversedge, in the county of York, England, have invented a certain new and useful Improvements in Ingrain Carpet Fabrics, of which the following is a specification.

The invention has been patented in Eng land No. 2,616, dated February 18, 1890, and in Canada, No. 34,499, dated June 9, 1890.

Our invention relates to improvements in Scotch or ingrain carpet fabrics and consists in a two ply ingrain fabric having its figures formed in distinct and solid colors of weft the wefts thereof being interwoven with the usual two ply warp, and as herein fully described, as to obtain one solid fabric of carpet.

To clearly explain the nature of our invention reference is made to the accompanying drawings in which Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 are sectional diagrams of ingrain carpet fabrics woven in accordance with our invention showing the dispo sition of the Wefts therein and the manner in which the respective colors of weft are brought to the face of the fabric and interwoven to produce solid or pure color effects. Fig. 5, is a diagram showing the present method of weaving ingrain carpet fabrics. Fig. 6, is a sketch plan View showing the de sign of a carpet for the purpose of illustration.

Referring first to Fig. 1, the weft threads are supposed to be, white, olive, black and red, as indicated by the letters 7. O. R. and the warp threads olive and red as indicated by thelctters o, r. This figure shows the manner in which the warp and weft are interlocked in the weaving, so as to form one solid fabric, which in this case will be all white on the surface as shown. Fig. 2 shows Fig. 3 shows all black, and Fig. at

and red, before referred to, and indicated by the letters 7. O. B. R. in the design or pattern of a carpet shown in Fig. 6, there will be required four stamped cards for each cord or line in the design, which cards must not be stamped in the ordinary manner but as follows:-first card stamp red to produce red; second, card stamp olive, black and red to produce white; third, card stamp white, black and red to produce olive; fourth, card stamp black to produce black.

The above cards are stamped to work with planes or journals and adoublelift jacquard and in doing so the same planes and board are made to lift twice together as shown in the table below, instead of each plane and board lifting alternately as in the ordinary way.

It will be seen from the drawings that the fabric comprises the mated figuring wcfts W, O, B, R, and two sets of warp threads 0, 0, r, r, the Wefts of any one color as \V being raised to cover any given surface while the remaining wefts are woven with one set of warps r, r, to form the body of the fabric each warp of the remaining set of warp threads binding'every alternate raised weft thread and passing into the body of the fabric to be bound by the mate weft below the raised weft.

What we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- An ingrain carpet comprising the mated below the raised Weft, substantially as defiguring Wefts \V. O; B. R, and two sets of scribed. warp threads 0 o, 'r r, the weft of any one In testimony whereof wehave hereunto set color as W being raised to cover any given our hands in the presence of two subscribing 5 surface While the remaining Wefts are Woven Witnesses.

With one set of warps 'r r, to form the body of JAMES SAMUEL OOOKE. the fabric, each Warp of the remaining set 5 JOHN WILLIAM BROOK. of warp threads bindiu g every alternate raised Witnesses:
